inflation rate increases in Jan....but Trump says

To be fair Trump has only been president a short time.

However there is no indication prices will be lowered anytime soon.

This was a campaign promise that got Trump elected.

Let's see if he fulfills his promise.

“When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day One”

That doesn't matter. He also promised to end the Ukraine conflict in 24 hours after taking office.
Just clickbait headlines for the masses.


What matters is if he manages to do either of these things.


If not, he will go down not as the 3rd worst president in history. He could end up the worst of all.

You are correct.

Promises made. Promises broke.

Everyone knows this was just campaign rhetoric and impossible to do. Not sure why you are so focused on it. What matters is if both promises start to become reality in 6 months.


If so: Trump rises in the polls
IF not so: popularity will decline quickly


Currently he is at 50%.

Not sure what you mean either. If you believed these would both happen on Jan 21, not sure what to say.


He did pardon all the Jan 6 rioters. Not sure if that was a campaign promise. But very simple to do, by just signing a document.

*I* think more to the point is that the maggies held old joey to this standard and treated what their Fearless Leader said as god given law. So, the libbys are adopting the Melange One metric. Maggies should not have any problem with donny practicing what he preaches since he expected the demos to do it.

So, it ain't that people are focused on it. They are like how I do my job. I have to back everything that I say. I see no problem with the electorate expecting the same.

If the guy couldn't deliver, he shouldn't have said anything.

Doing a specific job has no comparison value to being a politician.


"Chicken in every pot" from the past


The unfortunate thing is President Trump is a serial liar, and he still got elected because the Democrats
couldn't come up with a candidate decent enough to win. That is all they had to do, and failed.


At this time it does not look like interest rates will come down anytime soon. Tariffs are always bad for prices. Not looking good....

Sad but true. And they fucked it up twice. Almost a third time in 2020.

Alexander Hamilton was right.

Clearly you’ve no idea what that means nor who he was.
